Farwell Mr George and Mr Kitten

After almost two years of trying to correct the cats bad behavior of marking and pooping in inappropriate places, we had to surrender them to the humane society. Basically the vet said they dont like our kids. Well since we arent going to surrender our kids, we had no choice. Mr George came into my life in college and has been a great lover and fighter. He was known by all my roommates as Mr George (pronouced in spanish). For no reason he would hunch down and decide to run at full speed and wrap his legs around yours and bite for dear life. All while purring.

Shortly after getting married, we got Mr Kitten to play and fight with George so he would stop biting me. lol. It worked! Kitten is such a fun cat. He plays fetch, runs after the dogs, and likes to sleep under the covers. He has so much personality.

We are not sure which cat or if both were misbehaving but we decided we could chose so we had to give them both up. They will be missed!

Mr George

Best of friends and worst of enemies

He thought this was his chair for months

10xs Faster!!!!

Yay for new internet providers! Sorry for the long delay in posts but our previous provider wasnt up to par with making blog posts. Hoping this one can keep up! Im going to try to sum up our summer and latest events. We have had such a fun and busy summer! Best investment ever, was purchasing a pool pass! We spent many many days basking in the hot sun with all of our friends. Sad to know its over. We also took a couple vacations. In May we went to Virginia Beach with some of our favorite friends, the Richardsons. We also spent a week in Boston with family in July. In the in between time we spent hours and hours playing outside. Jett learned to ride a bike with NO training wheels! Josie mastered walking, running, and now riding her mini 4-wheeler. We built a super fun sand box and spent many hours playing and building in it. And found a new love for riding our mini dirt bike around the neighborhood on Daddys lap. Ive included what little pictures I took and plenty of pictures from our professional shoots. Always fun to have those done! Hopefully I will have lots of updates with our new internet!

2011 Adventures

Jett and Josie have come to truly love each other. Its so precious to watch! I cant wait until they can run around and play together. Jett keeps telling her she needs to learn to run. Not walk! RUN!

Our Dare Devil has found a new hobby to scare Mommy with.

Josie loves her friends at Romp and Roll. Arent they such girls already?! Jett wouldnt sit still at this age for a second. She is ALL girl!

This is the view from Joels parents back yard. Doesnt get much prettier than that! Other than all getting the flu, it was a super fun and relaxing vacation to Boston this winter.

Josie had her first spaghetti dinner and LOVED it!

So far this year has been a really eventful year, as well as a year full of illness. Sorry for the delay on posts but its been a sick and busy couple of months. Hoping things start looking up with spring around the corner! In just a couple short weeks we will be celebrating Josies big first birthday! Cant wait to post about that!

Donkey? Cow? No its a Donkey Cow!

Jett was ADORABLE in his first debut as a Donkey/Cow in his preschool Christmas program. I dont know if my favorite part was him yelling out in the middle of the play "Hey Bob!" or him smiling for every flash like they were all for him, or him constantly saying "more candy please" to the teacher. Oh how I love this kid!

Christmas with no camera

Thats right. NO camera. Its on the fritz again! Ugh. I think its time for a new one. But on another note my next door neighbors/second parents came by to celebrate Christmas morning with us and took a few pictures. It was such a fun Christmas. The magic of Santa was here and the story of Jesus was heard. Jett was very excited to celebrate it all! My Dad, Brother, Sister and niece all joined us this year in VA. It was a wonderful holiday weekend. I wish I had more pictures to show what a great time we had. Hopefully I can post some new ones with a new camera very soon! Enjoy the little I have....

Christmas Photo Shoot in the Rain!
